Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority website, 3/3/15:
'We apologize to our customers for significant service delays'
Statement by Joe Calabrese, RTA CEO & General Manager
Cleveland has been experiencing a brutal winter. Record low temperatures make any commute difficult, but I know that it has been especially difficult for RTA customers.
Our transit system has been impacted by significant snow, record low temperatures and ice storms -- creating frozen overhead power lines, frozen switches, six cars stuck on tracks, snow pile ups, floods and water main breaks. In fact, we have had 16 water main breaks since January alone.
